| Hello all,Is there a way for a field to have a value of either 'yes' or 'no' depending on anonther field?Basically, I have a date field called 'DateDue'. If that date field is less than GetDate, I would like another field to be flagged as 'yes'. Or perhaps there is another way to do this that is better. Please let me know.Thank you all so much. |

| As Madhivanan showed, you can simple select the value with that logic. Another option is to make a computed column. |
